Um, No, not everybody. There are roughly 30 million people in Canada, and that would be quite a few stables. My uncle has 4 horses, and I pretend that one of them is mine. He is a big Belgian, and although he eats carrots out of my hand (his name is Carrot), he really doesn't like a 240 pound guy sitting on his back.

That is an interesting question. Yes, there are Royal Canadian Mounted Police all over Canada, and they act as our regional and federal police. They are not necessarily in EVERY town, but I would guess at least one town in three. They are tasked with POLICING every town that does not have its own municipal force.
No, they are not all Burly. The RCMP has liberalized its hiring process, and there are many officers who I could fold up and put in my pocket.
Yes, they all own dress uniforms (called a Serge, I think) that is the traditional "red suit". They only wear that uniform for special occasions. Their normal uniform looks like this:
